Cort Acoustic Electric Guitar For Sale (2024 Update)

My first acoustic guitar. Very impressed by it. Sounds great. Great price also. Set up was superb. Thank you everyone at Richards guitarsIan J.

I picked up this guitar today. It came wrapped in bubble wrap so I'm guessing it was a floor model . But the issue with it is there is maybe a paper width distance from the strings to the frets. Also the neck was out of adjustment . This was supposed to be an anniversary gift and it sounds awful.. extremely disappointed.Jesse

I play this every time I get the chance too. The tone is perfect to my ears, really bright and also has some bass to it too, not as much as other guitars but it does the job. The color way is just beautiful and the way it was built well it just feels like butter!!!! The frets are good no sharpness, the only issue I have with it that the action is a little high for me but a simple fix can make this guitar perfect!!!!! 10/10 I recommend if you're thinking of getting a Cort guitar they're amazingJorge

I deliberated long and hard about this as it was a purchase for my daughter during Covid lockdown. I had to rely entirely on the advice of Richard who offered an exchange if It wasn't entirely suitable. Having now seen the guitar in the flesh myself I am very pleased. Bearing in mind that we already have a Taylor baby in the house, it is amazing how we'll this little Cort stands up in comparison to a guitar that was nearly twice the price. It's got a slightly warmer tone due to the mahogany body. I would not hesitate to recommend this as a good quality child's guitar or a travel/camping companion. In fact I might buy another to keep in my campervan.Mike S.

Nice, light, beautiful tones from the mahogany body. The neck's edges are smooth. The frets are smooth. The sound is very good. It looks beautiful. The electronics work well. I tweaked the truss rod just a little, and it plays very nicely, kind of a snappy feel with nice mid-range. It will be perfect for open mic nights.Boomer

I bought one on clearance, probably used, but I didn't ask. Sounded better than the other guitars at $400. Heard my cousin playing The Unforgiven on it and had to get it. After watching YouTube though, I'd get the Blackwood version, though I'm happy with my guitar and glad it sounds great.Andrew

I am very pleased with my court guitar ,which was delivered in a playable condition and needed no further setting up. Great job. thanks CliveClive W.

Well I have been a guitarist for 51 years and I am 61 and I have always heard Cort makes some of the best quality guitars at every price range! It is all so true folks! I have bought 3 other acoustic guitars in the past month as well! I bought this Cort dreadnought at the Lansing Michigan guitar center a few days ago! I I was going to buy a more expensive acoustic so I thought but after playing the Cost AD 810 OP to my surprise I fell in love with this guitar after a few minutes of playing! I play classical, folk ragtime rock and blues and everything sounded so good! This guitar to me is superb for the money in terms of sound, fit, finish and sound quality! And sounds as if it has a solid spruce top even though it is a spruce laminate! Wow a stunning beauty for the price as well! You can tell Cort is so picky about their quality control and overall quality! What a bargain for real! Sincerely, Dr. Russell RintelmannDr. Russell R

I actually purchased a mid range Taylor but it just wasn't the one. After playing several more Taylor and Martin I just happened to see this and loved the look, and the fact that it had a beveled arm rest prompting me to stop and try it….. 20 minutes later I was purchasing it. The sound is great, think Taylor but with more bass and clarity. I couldn't believe that I returned a Taylor for a Cort but I just love this guitar! Try it, you'll see quickly what I'm talking about.Mike

Auf der Suche nach einer bezahlbaren Grand Auditorium diese bestellt… Die Rezessionen bei anderen Musikhäusern waren viel versprechend. Die Gitarre kam 3 Tage nach Bestellung bei mir sicher verpackt an. Verpackung entfernt und dann das Teil erst einmal begutachtet. Optik (immer eine Geschmacksfrage) für mich sehr gut. Das Abalone Binding, die Schallochrosette und das Muster der Gitarrenrückseite machen richtig was her. Ins Detail geschaut waren leider am Übergang vom Hals zum Korpus leichte, aber hässliche Klebstoffreste vorhanden, Die ließen sich aber mit einem entsprechenden Mittel halbwegs gut entfernen. Ein Blick auf die Saitenlage und ich war erstaunt. Die hätte mancher Stratocaster zur Ehre gereicht. Also, die Gitarre gestimmt und gespielt. Bei nur halbwegs hartem Anschlag oder Picking schepperte und schnarrte es ohne Ende. Nach ca. 15 Minuten Spielen waren meine Fingerkuppen rabenschwarz, das Griffbrett und die Saiten waren völlig verdreckt. Bundstäbchen waren sauber eingesetzt, an den Enden leicht scharfkantig, aber akzeptabel. Das wäre alles eigentlich ein Grund gewesen, die Gitarre zurückzuschicken, aber der Grundsound schien mir aber eigentlich recht gut. Also Saiten runter, Griffbrett gereinigt und geölt, neue Saiten drauf und die Halskrümmung mit dem beiliegenden Werkzeug angepasst. Fazit: Die Gitarre ist immer noch großartig zu bespielen, vor allem ist das Halsprofil voll meins. Wenn nichts mehr schnarrt klingt sie sehr schön (eher Mitten und Höhen orientiert), hat aber natürlich nicht den Punch einer Dreadnought. Also nach all den Anpassungen eine durchaus schöne, gut klingende und hervorragend bespielbare Western. Aber muss man das alles selber machen, was ist das für eine Endkontrolle vor Auslieferung des Instruments, auch wenn es "nur" eine 500 Euro Gitarre ist? Pickup ist brauchbar, aber keinesfalls mit einem Fishman System oder dem einer Ovation vergleichbar. Es verstärkt und gibt den natürlichen Ton ganz gut wieder, aber mehr auch nicht. Der Lautstärkenregler reagiert sehr unsensibel, ein bisschen zu viel dran gedreht und alles ist viel zu laut. Der Tonregler regelt den Ton von dumpf bis nicht ganz so dumpf…, für besseren Sound muss halt der Verstärker ran. Auch wenn vieles an der Gitarre (zumindest bei meiner) im Auslieferungszustand nicht perfekt war, ist sie nach entsprechender Bearbeitung ein echt geiles und vor allem sehr gut bespielbares Instrument. Da ich sie vorwiegend unplugged spiele sind die Schwächen des Pickup Systems für mich nicht so wichtig und wenn doch bügelt das mein Amp aus. Alles in allem, trotz einiger Schwächen und mangelhafter Endkontrolle Daumen hoch für diese Gitarre!!!Jürgen

Great looking guitar and sounds great too, just wonder if the action further up the neck at 12th fret could be lower but maybe that would cause other problems like string buzz – I’m not an expert. Action at nut end is nice and low though.Alistair K.

This is not the first "Cort" acoustic guitar I purchased. They all had a balanced sound with nice high ends and a warm bass. I noticed once that my Cort acoustic carried the sound significantly better than an expensive Maton. Anyway the guitar is easy to play has an reasonable intonation considering it is a acoustic. … and the guitar is relatively small , which makes it easy to handle. In my opinion , that can only be an opinion, It sounds rather good !!!!!! …test it yourself and compare it to other more expensive brands. You will be surprised .hasott8

There was a delay in the delivery of the guitar but this was down to the courier service. Richard and his team did everything they could, to get this to me ASAP, as it was a gift. I would have no problem, buying f them again.George M.

Cort Guitars are famous for their quality of sound. Its been 2 months now, the metallic sound which is heard in new guitars is gone now. The notes and chords are played beautifully. the best thing is the gap between strings and wood is less, which makes it so comfortable to play. Glad That I bought this.Karanveer D.

The definition of living up to my expectations. Incredible guitar, I get chills every time I play it. Cannot fault this product at all.Dominic Fardoulys

Look, just wanted to reply to some reviews that say this guitar sounds well…..thin. Duh, yes its not a jumbo acoustic or even a regular body acoustic. Its a thinline acoustic so it sounds just like what it is. Ive played several thinline guitars and they all sound…well…thin. That doesnt mean its cheaply made or a bad sounding guitar. It has its own sound. If you want a deep bass, then buy a jumbo or regular acoustic. I like the easy neck movement. The chords sound fine and this guitar doesnt require anymore tuning than any other in this price range. I tried ten guitars at guitar center including more expensive brands like fender, mitchell, yamaha and others and this was the only one under 400 dollars that stayed in tune from an E chord to a C chord. I bought it because Ive owned Ibanez before and never regretted it. To each his own but keep in mind a thinline guitar is not going to have a deep rich sound, but, I record my bass along with it so it sounds fine. It is what it is…a nice thinline acoustic-electric guitar.Kjmmusician

I had been playing a very old and very nice acoustic at church for night service, and didn't want to subject it to the rigors of live playing on a regular basis. After some research, it came down to purchasing a Talman or a Stratacoustic. I went with the Talman due to the price, and Ibanez's reputation. When the guitar arrived, I was a little apprehensive as the neck felt awesome, but the setup was awful. The strings were heavy gauge, and were set way too high. After some work shaving down the bridge, changing to light strings, and adjusting the truss rod, this baby plays great! I love that the electronics are really easy to use, and it was made to plug in. The sound when you are practicing unplugged isn't as full or rich as you get with a full sized acoustic, but this guitar wasn't made for that – it was made to be plugged in. I was able to eliminate having to use pedals to get the proper volume and EQ, which makes the live rig way easier to set up and tear down. I play it through a Line 6 spider II 75 watt head running through a Marshall 4×12 cabinet. The spider's clean channel is great for acoustic as it does not color the tone, and the Marshall is plenty loud for a church sanctuary. Overall, I am quite happy with the Talman, even though I had to put in some extra work to get it the way I like my guitars. It is a steal at the price if you have the skills and are willing to play with the setup.Stratbuilder

. Now let me set the scene… I am a guitar lover (I can even play a little too) and a quality professional so My expectations are somewhat higher than most looking at this product. An absolutely beautiful instrument, this is my second SA360 and although they are no longer. Made in Japan, be assured they have not lost any of the build quality or attention to detail. The guitar was really well set up, is great to play, feels good in the hand and sounds the bee’s knee’s. If you are looking to start out in guitar playing get yourself an Ibanez Gio to start as a first upgrade from that, then the SA series is where you want to be at.Timbo

I hate to be negative but….Here we go. I love the electronics (SST Technology) on some of the Ibanez brand Acoustic Guitars because it eliminates the need for an EQ and delivers a fuller, fatter sound than most acoustic guitars. That being said, I have to be able to play it first and foremost. Upon receiving the well packed and shipped guitar, I took it out of the box and fretted a Gadd9 and noticed a disastrous buzz on the high E at the 3rd Fret. Figured it just needs a set up and took it to my guitar guy who told me after adjusting the truss rod with no fix that the fret would probably have to be filed. This is a brand new guitar, the frets shouldn't need to be filed out of the box. American Musical was very helpful w/ trying to expedite me one last minute for Monday on a Friday afternoon (since I have to play on Monday) but we'll see what happens. This is the 2nd Ibanez Guitar in 3 months that I went through this with. I'm slowly getting turned off.JR Huffsmith

I got this as my first real guitar. It's an amazing guitar, the sound is really nice, more of a soft tone for finger picking. Plugged in it sounds pretty nice, I like the options with the fishman preamp. The tuner works pretty well. Now for complaints, it came in a brown color, which I didn't mind, the tuner for the G string is suuuuuupppper hard to turn, either it's too tight to turn, or way too loose, when I first got it it had an awful buzz, but when I got it in tune and played it some it sounded fine. Other than that a great guitar!Lord Potato

I am very happy with this purchase! It was sold as a factory second because of a minor flaw with the finish. To actually see the "flaw" you need to angle it just right in the light. It is NOT seen without close inspection. The pictures are not of good quality (they look splotchy). It is nice and easy to play as the strings are close to the neck (as I have seen with other Ibanz guitars). It sounded very good and I got compliments when I played it for a worship service. I had priced this exact model at musiciansfriend and it was $100 more expensive (with free shipping). So this is a very nice sounding, good looking guitar for a good price! Shipping was super fast (I live in Wisconsin where this came from).cheryloke_0

This has been a great entry level (or more?) guitar. Been using it with youtube videos and Rocksmith and everything works as advertised!ROBERT

The CC 60sce has a more cheery upper range, great for folk or country songs. The tuner is accurate and easy to read. The colors of the guitar really shine in good lighting. I'm not sure if it's the strings being new or if it's just the guitar but they seem to need some frequent tuning. Other than that, this is a great guitar for beginners hoping to play for a small audience or jamming with friends at home. Finally, I noticed it has good response vibrations in the body when you strum a full chord. It reacts nicely against your body. Would buy it again.Kai

Great feel and sound. But the little $1.99 door that holds the battery for the Fishman electronics is or will break, and it's a non-repairable part. You have to return the guitar to repair it. Disregarding the battery, the guitar is great. And I would buy it again. It's not a top of the line $1000 guitar, but it is a top of the line $200 guitar (with an extra $150 added on for broken electronics). The overall size is good, and the neck and frets are a good size for my 12 year old daughter. The action feels good with little fret buzz and it seems to stay in tune all day. I've had 2 of these now. My first one had a broken batt door when opening the box. Per Fender's rules, I returned the whole guitar for a replacement. Great! Except on the 2nd one the little door is too wimpy to stay clipped shut. So the battery just falls out. Maybe I'll have to resort to a big strip of duct tape to hold the door shut. Yeah. That sounds like a good idea. Or just rely on the clip-on tuner I already have and use a Mic to amplify it.Ben (again)

Great guitar for a beginner like me. Shame that the plastic battery cover didn't fit properly and I broke it trying to install the battery on the first day. That said, this is a really nice guitar for any level player. Good quality guitar but Fender should spend a few more pennies on that battery cover. Brilliant delivery from PMT ordered late afternoon arrived first thing the next day.Stephen D.

Need adjust bridge and after trussrod adjust very smooth to play, sound quality is okay.if they use fishermen inbuilt tunner then it's greatUtpal M Boruah
